Don't waste your time. It's plain bad. Couldn't even finish it.

The story is kind of predictable, but there are rarely family movies that have twists in them. Plus it's a tad sluggish when it started. The only part that bugged me is the switching from English to Spanish at random, it get confusing. Plus subtitling Spanish words that most English people already know is a tad insulting. But it is fun, very well animated story and worth checking out.

A formulaic story, but has good efforts, but still does not work out.

Eighty minutes of the blandest humor, strident music, generic action sequences that will only satisfy the least demanding of kids. [Full Review in Spanish]

More than just a collaboration between Mexico and the U.S., this is an overall enjoyable film. [Full review in Spanish]

A good effort but the film drifts away with a corny and predictable script. [Full review in Spanish]

It doesn't matter what country of origin this film has, this is a mediocre animated movie that not even Disney could save. [Full review in Spanish]
